In last week's episode of South Park, Matt and Trey put the Yelp folks in their crosshairs. The gist of the episode was that Yelp reviewers were basically putting restaurant owners out of business by constantly trying to use their "leverage" as a reviewer to get freebies and other benefits. As South Park is known to do, they blast these people for the half hour. Yelp has apparently never seen South Park, because they just sued the show over the episode.

And South Park's response was glorious:

“We’ve taken a hard look at the information presented to us, and after reviewing it, we have given Yelp and their lawsuit only one star. Their lawyers delivered us legal documents in a very unprofessional manner; not bothering to smile or even a quick handshake. The writing on the envelope was barely legible and in two different colors. It is our personal opinion that Yelp could do a much better job by not suing us for ten million dollars.”
